मधेसमा काँग्रेसको जग बलियो रहेन अब

नेपाली काँग्रेस महासमितिको मधेसमा बसेको बैठकले एक मधेस तीन प्रदेश को नक्शा पारित गरे पछि त्यो नक्शा को आधारमा काँग्रेस चुनावमा गयो र राम्रै नतिजा ल्यायो। देशको स्थायी सरकार (पुलिस, प्रहरी, प्रशासन) ले उसको पक्षमा धाँधली गर्यो, त्यो आफ्नो ठाउँमा छ।

एक मधेस भनेको झापा बाट चितवन हुँदै कंचनपुर सम्म हो। काँग्रेसको त्यो आधिकारिक अडान हो। त्यो अडानलाई उल्ट्याउन कि त महासमितिको अर्को बैठक डाक्नुपर्यो कि महाधिवेशन डाक्नु पर्यो। त्यस्तो केही गरिएको छैन। मधेसी जनता को मा जाँदा एक मधेस भन्ने अनि चुनाव जिते पछि सुशीलले त्यस मधेस बाट झापा, मोरंग, सुनसरी, चितवन, कैलाली, कंचनपुर झिक्ने कुरा गर्ने!?

मधेसी क्रांति पछि मधेसमा निकै कमजोर हुन पुगेको काँग्रेसले एक मौका पायो त्यस पछि पनि। तर अब मधेसमा काँग्रेसको जग बलियो रहेन। जनताको मैंडेट नमान्ने काँग्रेसका सभापति। आफ्नो पार्टीको महासमिति लाई नमान्ने काँग्रेसका सभापति।

Truth And Reconciliation Commission

Just like human rights have only one international definition, the Truth And Reconciliation Commission has only one international definition. You form a commission, and you let it do its work. That is part and parcel of the peace process in Nepal that has not concluded yet.

Judicial adventurism at the hands of a judiciary that still primarily serves the interests of the Khas elite would be an attack on the peace process. Nepali Congress suffered more than any other organization during the civil war. If the peace were to end and the country thrown back into civil war, the Nepali Congress would suffer more than any other entity in the country. Why would Nepali Congress stalwarts do things to mar the peace process? I don't understand.

South Africa is the best example of a Truth And Reconciliation Commission doing its work to ensure permanent peace in the country. Nepal should learn. Nepal has a very real chance of going back to civil war. That can not be allowed.

The concept of a Truth And Reconciliation Commission is not one of general amnesty. Extreme cases of human rights violations do get persecuted. But they only enter the judicial process after the commission recommends. In Nepal some vested interests are trying to put the cart before the horse. They actually benefit if the country goes back to civil war. But the country suffers.
